Onchain fees don't depend on the amount of sats but amount of bytes. Currently, onchain fees are low with 2 sats/vB:
vB means virtual bytes (a special unit for bitcoin transactions) and they calculate with an average transaction size of 140 vB. So you'd pay currently around 280 sats which is about $0.18 to open a channel.

Thank you so much! 🙏 I'll most probably run my own node. It's not that difficult as I thought it to be. 😊
